President Donald Trump issued an executive order on June 25 directing federal agencies to expand support for regenerative agriculture and related farm practices.
Regenerative Agriculture Initiative
The order builds on Executive Order 14212, which created the Make America Healthy Again Commission in February 2025. It states that the Departments of Health and Human Services and Agriculture, along with the Environmental Protection Agency, have already committed more than $1 billion toward farm modernization and food supply security.
The new directive sets policy to advance precision agriculture technologies, increase federal spending on regenerative practices, research, and education, and encourage private innovation through reduced regulation and public-private partnerships.
Regenerative agriculture is a holistic farming approach that restores soil health, enhances biodiversity, and strengthens ecosystem functions while supporting long-term agricultural productivity.
